'02 Vulcan Drifter 1500

Probably I'm telling a dumb thing, but I'd also check the side stand: it's got a switch that will shut off the engin, if the side stand is open.

I love my swingin' bike!

If the tipover switch is activated, the efi light will flash until the ign is cycled. Is this happening?

I think the VD sensor is under the seat near the rear of the gas tank.  First thing I'd check though is the ground and battery connections.

I love my Drifter 1500 year 2001. When I drive the engine sometimes shuts down while driving. It can happen at any speed. It happens more often when I turn left!? The engine dies but if I quickly turn of the ignition key (while ridning) and turn it on again the engine starts again. I think this might have to do with the vehicle down sensor. Any one who knows? Where is this sensor located on the bike?
